    We loved everything about the house. The house exceeded our expectations. The owners go above and beyond to make sure your stay is the best it can be. The amenities the house had to offer were exceptional, from the kitchen to the beach gear, this house had it all. The owners do a great job at making you feel welcome and comfortable. Our family made memories and had a wonderful, beautiful stay at Almost Heaven.

    The property is good and all the amenities for the beach were good. :The kitchen and the rest of the house was excellent. The large table in the kitchen was big enough that all of us could use it together. Would recommend to any one interested in Topsail Beach to rent the property.

    We have been coming to Topsail for 15 years and have stayed in at least a dozen properties and Almost Heaven is one of the very best. The location is great being near the North bridge in a narrow part of the island so it will never be crowded and you have an unobstructed view of the beach so it’s essentially ocean front. As for the house, this property by far was the best stocked property we’ve rented. It’s clear the owner treats this house more like her home and not just a rental property. The kitchen is very well stocked and all of the appliances are in great shape. There are also just enough personal touches that make you feel more like you’re visiting a friend for the week. You will not be disappointed if you stay at Almost Heaven.

    This was our second time staying in this home and we truly love it. The location, amenities, cleanliness—all perfect for two families with young kids. Our only negative experience was with the property manager rather than the house itself. The downstairs AC broke down during our stay and it took well over 24 hours for them to send a service technician. Then, after it was serviced, it failed again. We still hadn’t heard back from Vacasa after notifying them about the second failure by the time we checked out. This was during the hottest week of the summer thus far (over 100° heat index), so it was uncomfortable for our downstairs guests. Issues like this are expected from time to time, especially when the AC unit is under so much stress, but we were disappointed in Vacasa’s responsiveness. In the future, it would be helpful if they could at least offer to drop off a dehumidifier to keep things more comfortable while guests wait for a repair technician.

    Well appointed home with plenty of room for our whole family. The kitchen was amazingly well stocked. The owner added lovely touches such as beach towels and robes. The house provided a great selection of beach chairs and toys . Plenty of deck chairs for viewing the ocean.

    We had such a great vacation at Almost Heaven! It fit what we needed for our family and we loved the view from the top deck with the tall chairs! We also enjoyed the fire pit so much! We even had the privilege of watching a fisherman reel in a sizeable shark from our balcony. Great week!

    We had a wonderful stay at Almost Heaven. We were so impressed with the house. It was so kept up and had a ton of stuff in it to use. The garage is fully stocked with beach chairs, umbrellas, beach toys. You do not need to bring a thing. The kitchen is fully stocked with any sort of pot, pan, bowl…anything you need. They had games to use. The deck has a beautiful view with nice high-quality patio furniture on it. I really can’t say enough good things about the house. We had 13 people in it and still had plenty of room. We had a slight problem with the key code not working upon arrival. I called Vacasa to get help with the issue and they were amazing and quick with their response. They helped us get in and then had a local employee follow up with us. The house is located about half a mile south of the towns local public beach. It was a nice walk to go check out the pier and the local turtle rescue was active one morning releasing the sea turtles which only one of our group got to witness but very cool!
